Creating Memories with Custom Photography
Because Life is Beautiful
Because Life is Beautiful
We are a professional photography team that has been a part of the Ontario Photography Community for over 10 years now. We love creating memories - whether it be your engagement or wedding, the birth of your child, or a family get-together, we will provide you with beautiful and emotional photos for you to share with your loved ones and friends.
Our photos reflect joy and emotion. We use a combination of traditionally posed photos as well as "tell it like it is" photos, capturing action-packed candid photos in a photojournalistic style.
We love light, and natural light is the best way to portray emotion. Although we do have studio equipment, we much prefer soft window light, later or early day sun or a cloudy sky for outside sessions. Manipulating light is what makes a photographer a professional, as well as good communication, a relaxed atmosphere and a friendly manner. This all brings out the best in you, our subject.
We offer suggestions of what to wear to a session, and how to pose. As a people person, we know how to relax you, how to make you smile and laugh, and to have a good time. That is what we do for you. Your session will run smoothly and you will have fun. We connect well with children, having had children of our own, and understand how children can be when having their photos taken!
Best of all, we like to have FUN. And we like to see you have FUN.
Our website contains a password protected page where you can preview and download your photos. Your final images are available by digital download with the option of purchasing printed photos from our lab. Purchasing printed photos is entirely up to you. Weddings and larger event photos are delivered to you on a USB in high resolution.
Everyone is entitled to great photos at a reasonable cost. Let us show you, you won’t be disappointed.
CatsMac shoots mostly in Northumberland, Quinte, Durham and Peterborough County, we are open to travelling. Just ask!
